Wake up......
You need to wake up....
NOW...

(Gasp)
I was jolted awake by the sound of the voice in my head. It scared me... again. I'd been having these nightmares for about two months now and it was starting to bug me. I don't know how or why I started having them, but I know I don't appreciate them....Hi, my name is Korra, princess korra, my father is king Kaltin and my mother is queen adora of duren the home of the tidebound elves. Our kingdom is the biggest and most powerful of the five kingdoms.

This morning was a special occasion, my father or "the king" as everyone outside the royal grounds calls him... has a special meeting with the other four rulers. Their children will also be attending the event. My kingdom is right next to the kingdom of voltera, and it's rulers king usher and queen rata, witch is the homeland of the bloodlust elves.

In every kingdom there is a ruler who lives in the center of the kingdom, or the capital city. voltera's capital city is called volige, and in the kingdom of montero, the home of the moonshadow  elves, and their emperor akie and his wife, queen Mari, the capital city is called the silver grove. The neighboring kingdom of montero is sultan, home of the earthrider elves and king ryhari, and queen maya. it's capital is called the drakewood. And last but not least is the kingdom of armagio, the proud home of the startouched elves. And it's queen astra and her wife nikiti.

All the kingdoms and realms where special, and the five kingdoms along with all the forests and desert's surrounding them make up our land of Arcadia....

Searching quickly through my clothes to find a dress to wear to the meeting I picked up a teal and gold dress, with puffed sleeves that cuffed at my elbow, the sleeves not fully covered my shoulder and hung on my arm instead with three finger thick chocolate brown straps on the shoulder and a v shaped neckline that didn't dip to low but wasn't to high ether. I put on some brown and gold flats with a bow on the top of the and ran to my vanity to fix my hair, I threw my long curly and silky brown ish gold hair into a messy half updo, grabbed my silver and gold butterfly clip and put it in then I put on my blackened ruby necklace then grabbed my bag and a book and left for the dining hall.

My sister as getting ready when I passed by her open door. I stopped to look in at her outfit, she had a lilac and white gown with sleeves that set just below her shoulders with a silver chain with a emerald sitting in the middle of her chest, her long black hair was pinned up kind of like mine but less of a curly mess. She has lilac flats on with a white bow in the center.
After she finished and a spritz of perfume she grabbed her bag and we headed down to the dining hall to greet our parents.

"Girls, hurry we are already five minutes late and you know how your mother is about being on time." My father called for us as we raced down the hallways and stairs. We reached the gates of the castle and got right into the carriage. "Ozor, take us to hultain's point at the half peak of Mount Zebulon." My mother told our driver. Mount Zebulon is a sacred meeting place that has served as one for thousands of years being a safe place for king and queens to meet since the beginning of time.
"Yes your highness."
We pulled off and set out on a hour long journey to Mount Zebulon.....
